There is a damn good reason the limiter is there. First i'm pretty sure its electronic in the ecm. Second, expect a rod to come straight through your *** if you push 185 in 6th

You should remove the headlight and ride around with nightvision goggles while you're at it

i don't believe there is a rev limiter in US bikes...two...you're a moron....three...an f4i is NOT going to do 185....four...i doubt a 1000rr is doing 225 stock....

seriously....just stop....where were you hitting 155, and if you say anything other than a straightaway on a track, hope you wear a LOT of gear....

oh man...seriously....what the hell is wrong with people?

Yep, true squid. Gives us other squids a bad name...lol.

no way a stock 1000RR is gonna hit 225. Its not the rpm that stops the bike for going faster, it runs out of power. Your friend is feeding you BS trying to sound cool.

Leave your bike alone. If you do find way to bypass your rev limiter, your going to destroy your engine.. plain and simple. Its there for a reason, and its not there to limit speed, its there to limit RPM's...an engine can only withstand so many RPM's before it grenades.....

Hey, wait a minute.. thats Harley's whole problem. Since theredlinearound 6 grand.. just cut the rev limiter on em and spin em to 12,000 rpms.. Man.... I'm a genius... I gotta make a phone call to Harley and tell em how make their bikes faster....

sorry to rip on a new member, but come man.. use your head. Ask your friend where his rev limiter was....... bet he doesnt know because he didnt do it...... he just fed you a line of crap.

yup. and on a 1000RR it isnt the REV limiter that you remove, its the governor that limits the top speed to 187. your friend is an idiot, stop hanging out with him, and find a group of SMART bikers who actually know what they're talking about to hang out iwth.
